Training topic - Ave a go

Having coached girls for many a year. I've found that the basic knowledge lacks when it comes to attacking principles. Small sided games typically mirror small sided possession with the player s priorities having been molded by the hours spent on playing non directional possession. In a game that requires constant attack minded play, the fine line between keeping a ball and "ave a go!" is seen in the following video of the US national team in preperation for the upcoming London games. The energy, speed of play and quickness to shoot are easily hilited.
